[ERIS]: Downtime Edition: Tricks

>You think for a moment on what to buy and end up grabbing the Dream Job and Large bird items. You take a few minutes to think on what patrons to choose but there’s a lot of different choices. So you quickly shoot your patrons a message.


>Hey, Ammy, Nepthys, I just got a third patron slot, are there any gods you’d like to have join you in particular? Like maybe Mixcoatl or Thoth?


Well, player, Thoth works somewhat like Athena, he will prevent disaster but will also prevent good fortune. In short, your game will become fairly neutral.


AKA HE’S BORING.


BORING GOD FOR A BORING PLAYER. WEE WOO WEE WOO SOMEONE CALL AN AMBULANCE I’M DYING OF BOREDOM.


...Yes


As for Mixcoatl, he’s a fairly nice god actually. He, artemis, and diana get along very nicely actually so I would highly recommend pairing them up sometime.


His powers are mostly negative in the main game, as the positives take place post game. In exchange for a more challenging game you’ll receive more stable hybrids.


If you receive any hybrids at all, of course.


Plot twist he's just as boring as artemis and diana.


What was that Ammy?


Oh I'm sorry. I'll speak up. HE'S. BORING. TOO. THUMBS DOWN.


...


Incidentally, our powers will conflict somewhat, I subtly influence your game to prevent disastrous encounters and protect your crew, such as your time on the strange cult planet.


In that encounter I felt that the odds were...not in your favor. So I used my influence to reduce the spawning of the cultist creatures


That planet in general was...not a very fortunate experience.


You know, I thought something was off about that combat. 2/10, would not see again.


Well, I suppose I did not ask you Amaterasu.


Incidentally player, I’m afraid I must leave for the time being.


>What? Why??



Do not be alarmed player, it is nothing against you. In fact I’ve been enjoying my time as your patron!


I simply have some work to do in the underworld that I would like to give my full attention.


And, truth be told player, I was originally only planning to be your patron for a single game anyway. I...suppose I should have been more forward with that.


But on the other hand player, I will not be leaving you empty handed at least, I technically should not be doing this but….


Well, I’ll be leaving you 500 achievement points. Consider it a gift from me.


Ok Ok Ok Ok Ok yeah yeah yeah Bye Felicia. Adios amigas.


Yes, well, I shall see you again sometime then player. Have a nice game.

[Nepthys has quit being your patron]


>Well that was unfortunate, but it’s not the worst way anyone’s lost a patron. You end up deciding to go for Stolas as one of your new patrons now that you have the extra points. You still have one slot to fill but you still aren’t quite sure what to choose


. . . .


Wow. Talkative.

You now have 1800 achievement points and one open patron slot.
